"The PFA does not represent players when they have broken the law and been convicted on non-football matters."- Gordon Taylor in 2009 following Marlon King's release after a prison sentence for sexual assault & ABH

Think it's a fair comment from Rose. The theory that Hodgson has somehow managed to turn the club to **** in the space of about three weeks is just silly, their performances are just demonstrating how bad they already were.

I'm not entirely convinced he's good enough, but fact is it's FAR too early to tell whether he's up to the job or not.

He's playing half the team out of position and has changed the team's tactics from a pressing game, to a holding one. How can you not judge him on it?

Cole on the left, Meireles on the right, Kuyt behind the forward, etc. The same was said about the Northampton game, yet again; players out of position and no subs or tactical changes until the 90th minute. He's utterly clueless.

Even at our worst last year, we weren't regularly getting bossed in possession. It just didn't happen. I think Roy has now had the worst start to a season for a Liverpool manager in 50 years.
